What will a 2020 NFL season look like?

Recommended Posts

With this pandemic dragging on without a vaccine in sight and a drug combo un-tested, will this season even happen? And if it does and the NFL is determined to play, what will it look like? Obviously they can't be having a stadium full of fans elbow to elbow. Is there anyway they can make it work without a delay or total cancelation??

 

Opinions and ideas please...

Impossible to predict. Maybe some of these early promising anti-viral trials turns into an effective treatment for this thing and a lot of the danger subsides. Maybe summer temps and humidity combined with social distancing measures largely curbs the wildfire like spread of this thing and then it doesn't come roaring back this fall. Then again, maybe it does.

We'll just have to wait and see. I don't think there's any outcome that would surprise me from season played out as usual to games played in empty stadiums to no NFL season at all next season.

If they played in empty stadiums with only TV broadcast, wonder how they would handle PSL holders?

Maybe the Season Ticket scenerio goes nationwide  as a stand alone streaming service with higher rates? Would you buy into this concept to have NFL football with empty stadiums to still have a season?

The GOAT. By the way the flu has killed way more people.

So let me get this straight...

You seek validation about a global virus that is in its early stages--one that medical doctors warn us to avoid---by quoting an NFL player?  Did you know that the rate of full recovery from the flu is 100 times higher than this virus?  Did you know that the flu stat is a quote that many cited after they spewed for weeks that it was a hoax?

While you tell us not to watch the news, I can tell you right now which news channel you watch.

    • That was always the fear, expectation, concern, etc, I had.  Someone showed a still shot from his pick last game and said it showed that the defender closed 3 yards on that ball in the last portion of its flight. I forget the number. 10 yards I think it said but that sounds extreme.  When guys are open by a step, any slowing down to wait for the ball lets the defender back into the play. That sort of stuff makes the margins so small… these NFL CBs are not slow.   It is a league that highly values foot speed; the 40 times and drill times are scrutinized down to the hundredth of a second when evaluating these players on both sides of the passing game. Receivers and defenders both.   My thing with his arm strength (or anyone’s) was always “why do you want to do that? Plus pay extra picks to put yourself in that situation?”. Asking for trouble.     I wish there was a way to measure velocity on the back half of a throw compared to when it left the hand. Or really get accurate reading of the flight time of a ball from the near hash to the sideline, 10 yards down the field. Because teams could use that info. I have always seen this as being a disadvantage with Bryce but it is beyond my ability to quantify it.   I think it would show what that arm strength is really about, a lot more than just measuring how much air can you put under it so it will fly as far as possible.

    • Its a detriment if he can't play...as we are seeing.
